I spent many hours studying the issues, watching the debates and listening to the candidates and the analysis offered by experienced talking heads ! Then I learned that I was to be the site manager for the Fort Myers Beach sand sculpting event riunning Nov 4 - 9 ! So, last weekend I decided I would vote early ! The voting place was very well organized, well staffed and efficiently run. The entire process took just over an hour. It was interesting to watch all of the other early voters.
As I waited my turn I really felt like this was democracy at its' finest ! Ordinary citizens gathered to exercise their most cherished right ! Voting their conscience ! Voting for McCain or Obama to lead this great country through some very difficult times ahead of us. I felt very honored to be part of this process and to be a citizen of this great country. Yes, it sounds kind of corney to talk about such a simple act this way until you remember that we too often take it for granted ! So call me corney already ! I voted and I hope you will too !
